Gondow Lab
Machine-translated · View original
A lab that builds development tools to eliminate software bugs.
AboutAbout the lab
Supporting programmers with better tools.
The Gondow Lab studies software development tools that support program developers.
Today's software has grown beyond a million lines, far larger than humans alone can develop.
Existing tools such as debuggers, version control systems, and integrated development environments still leave room for improvement.
The lab's approach is to enjoy the intellectual work of programming while implementing tools that can be used on real-world software.
Key terms
- Software development tools
- Programs that help with building software, such as debuggers, version control systems, and integrated development environments
- Traceability
- The ability to trace which part of the source code corresponds to which specification
- async/await
- A JavaScript mechanism that waits for time-consuming operations to finish while keeping code readable in the order it is written
ResearchResearch themes
The Gondow Lab mainly studies tools for eliminating defects (bugs) in computer software. Even as software grows ever larger, it is still written by human beings, so the lab creates methods and tools that lighten that burden even a little.
*Illustrative imageLinking Specifications to Code
The external specifications of software are enormous, which makes it hard to tell which part of the source code corresponds to which specification (traceability). The lab extended editors, browsers, and PDF viewers so that links to specifications can be embedded in code.
*Illustrative imageVisualizing the Execution Order of Asynchronous Processing
With JavaScript's async/await, code can be written in the order it is meant to run, but other processing can slip in while a task is waiting, sometimes producing unexpected results. The lab developed a tool that visualizes the actual execution order.
MembersFaculty
The members of the Gondow Lab are faculty and students at the master's and undergraduate levels.
